I was a Housewives addict, but after a few years of watching constant bickering and back stabbing, I'm not as loyal of a fan anymore.

I maybe tuned into a total of two episodes of  The Housewives of Atlanta this season - couldn't handle grown women acting like they're still in high school. I never see them do anything positive in their lives or for their community. Nene likes to say, "I'm rich." So give back and quit bragging. But, I will check out Kim's new show, Don't Be Tardy For The Wedding. She's the one in the group that has managed to stay out of the drama and focus on her family and new husband.                                                

My thought was to watch the Atlanta reunion show at the end of the season, but after a minute of hearing Nene run her mouth and pointing her giant finger, I was done with that as well.                    


Which brings me to Shahs of Sunset by Ryan Seacrest. I told myself not to tune in...don't need another show with ridiculous caddy women. "Hello we're Persian."  But, I've tuned in a few times and I really like it.

They are real working people, real friends with normal life issues, and they talk instead of screaming at each other. The cast consist of Reza, Mike, Sammy, Asa, GG and MJ.

Reza, is an openly gay man in the Persian community. He has had years of disconnect with his father - finally they had a heart-to-heart to repair their relationship -It was a touching and emotional episode.

 MJ  is successful with her real estate career, but she has a mother that is full of negativity. MJ confronts her mother about all the negativity she throws at her, but there is no changing her and her opinions. She told her MJ she wasn't successful and she wasn't marriage material. Ouch!

Mike Shouhed is single, Persian and Jewish, Asa Rahmati is artistic, free spirited, writes and records music. GG Gharachedaghi travels and shops saying that she's looking for a husband to take the burden off her father, and Sammy Younai is a residential developer in Beverly Hills that specializes in building multi-million dollar homes specifically for the Persian community.

Excited for next season!

How's Your Sleep

OMG Facts tweeted yesterday that you can survive days without eating but will live 11 days from not sleeping.  http://www.omg-facts.com/  I'm teetering on being sleep deprived at the moment. My 2 year old granddaughter has been staying the night and she won't sleep in her room.  She is a 2 year old that is the height of most 4 year olds, and she sleeps horizontally. It's not bad the nights that I get her head in my chest, but when its a night of the feet and getting kicked... forget about it. No sleep! I did some research and of course there has always been pros and cons about children sleeping in the same bed. Dr. Phil is opposed to it  - one of his reasons is it can cause regressive behavior.  http://drphil.com/articles/article/114  Personally I disagree - I loved having my kids by me and saw no side effects from it. They knew that they were always welcome in my bed, so naturally the same rule goes for the grandkids. It's just this is the first time h...
I left early this morning to get some shopping done, and I have to be honest - not ready to be sold on Christmas  I know it's the way retail works - I put many years into that industry, but I truly hate how overly commercialized Christmas is. They brainwash people and kids into thinking they have to have the newest and best of everything, and most people buy into the lie.  But what about the kids that their parents can't fall into the trap because financially they just can't do it. Are they made fun of or shunned by their peers because they don't have the newest clothes, gadgets, or toys?  Do they feel inferior or not worthy enough to receive - according to the advertisers you have to have it. It's not fair or right and I hate it!                                                               I think we all need to ...
